We measure the propagator length in imaginary time quantum mechanics by Monte Carlo simulation on a lattice and extract the Hausdorff dimension $d_{H}$. We find that all local potentials fall into the same universality class giving $d_{H}=2$ like th...
The data from the event horizon telescope have provided a novel view of the vicinity of the horizon of a black hole (BH), by imaging the region around the light-ring. They have also raised hopes for measuring in the near future, features of the image...
We conducted a global comparative analysis of the coverage of American topics in different language versions of Wikipedia, using over 90 million Wikidata items and 40 million Wikipedia articles in 58 languages. Our study aimed to investigate whether...
We describe a new method for obtaining the CP phase alpha via measurements of B_{d,s} -> K(*) Kbar(*) decays. This method is particularly appropriate for hadron colliders since some of the branching ratios are small [O(10^{-6})], and since B_s deca...
Space debris is a major problem for all space-active nations. Adopting high precision measuring techniques will help to produce the reliable and accurate catalogue for space debris and collision avoidance. Laser Ranging is a kind of real-time measuri...
JEDI will probe dark energy in three independent ways by measuring the expansion history of the universe: (1) using type Ia supernovae as cosmological standard candles over a range of distances, (2) using baryon oscillations as a cosmological stand...
Territorial control is a key aspect shaping the dynamics of civil war. Despite its importance, we lack data on territorial control that are fine-grained enough to account for subnational spatio-temporal variation and that cover a large set of conflic...
We performed a large-scale crawl of the World Wide Web, covering 6.9 Million domains and 57 Million subdomains, including all high-traffic sites of the Internet. We present a study of the correlations found between quantities measuring the structural...
The National Statistics Bureau of Ecuador carries out monthly polls to monitor the evolution of the Consumer Price Index, a metric measuring consumer prices of essential commodities. These surveys are administered across a designated set of stores, w...
In this article we present the Hayastan Shakarian (HS), a robustness index for complex networks. HS measures the impact of a network disconnection (edge) while comparing the sizes of the remaining connected components. Strictly speaking, the Hayastan...
In this article we present Miuz, a robustness index for complex networks. Miuz measures the impact of disconnecting a node from the network while comparing the sizes of the remaining connected components. Strictly speaking, Miuz for a node is defined...
Material Girl was a two-stage sounding rocket designed and flown during the 2022-2023 academic year. Weighing a total of 197 lbs and measuring 176 inches in length, the vehicle incorporated many improvements from the team's previous rocket, Mr. Blue...
Altmetrics, indices based on social media platforms and tools, have recently emerged as alternative means of measuring scholarly impact. Such indices assume that scholars in fact populate online social environments, and interact with scholarly produc...
Decentralized financial (DeFi) applications on the Ethereum blockchain are highly interoperable because they share a single state in a deterministic computational environment. Stakeholders can deposit claims on assets, referred to as 'liquidity share...
Devin Toner (born 29 June 1986) is a former professional rugby player. He played in the second-row for Ireland and the Irish province Leinster. Measuring
A simple experimental technique for measuring the phase and amplitude of diffracting ultrasound wave [A. Hitachi and M. Takata, Am. J. Phys. 78, 678 (2010)] has been applied to diffracting objects with straight edges as a demonstration of the Cornu s...
One fundamental question about pulsars concerns the mechanism of their pulsed electromagnetic emission. Measuring the high-end region of a pulsar's spectrum would shed light on this question. By developing a new electronic trigger, we lowered the t...
Measuring solar-like oscillations in an ensemble of stars in a cluster, holds promise for testing stellar structure and evolution more stringently than just fitting parameters to single field stars. The most ambitious attempt to pursue these prospe...
Hi, I tried a few prompts I had collected for measuring prompt adherence of various models, and ran them again with the latest Qwen Image 2512. TLDR: there is a measurable increase in image quali...
The X-ray spectra of intermediate polars can be modelled to give a direct measurement of white dwarf mass. Here we fit accretion column models to NuSTAR spectra of three intermediate polars; V709 Cas, NY Lup and V1223 Sgr in order to determine their...
